Time Travel

If I had the ability to time travel, I would choose to go back in the past. I wouldn't change a single thing. I just want to revisit those moments when life seemed to be so easy to navigate, when everything was still smooth sailing.

I would revisit my childhood, specifically. That was the time when life and especially people were so easy to deal with. I would like to go back in time when I could still justify my bad behavior, because "I am just a kid." I didn't have to think of and deal with the consequences of my actions then. 

I just want to experience again what it feels like to be a child. When the hardest decision I had to make was what color I had to use on my drawing. How to be careless. No responsibilities. No expectation from myself. Not caring what other people would think if I made a mistake. Not pressuring myself to figure out how I can create a beautiful life for myself. I kinda miss those times when overthinking and PMS weren't in my vocabulary. I want to go back in time when I was still able to take things lightly. I want to go back again when the only thing that made my cry was when my mother wouldn't allow me to go swimming with my cousins. I wish I could rewind the time when I truly believed that Santa exists and would give me a gift on Christmas Eve. And most importantly I want to go back in time when sleep was still my best friend. I could easily fall asleep wherever, whenever. 😒 Those were some of the best days of my life. 

How I wish that life had a button that I can just easily press. When life is good, pause. When life is terrible, fast forward. When I want to rewatch the episodes that I miss, rewind. Sadly, life has only one button which is play. Whether we like what we see or not, life keeps on playing. It doesn't matter whether we can catch up or not. 

We cannot revisit the past, but we have the present where we can create beautiful moments again. Moments that will soon become memories and will belong in the past also. That's the cycle of life. 




au revoir. 😊

My Worst Job Interview Experience

I probably shared with you in the past how I struggled to find a job. I've been to a lot of job interviews. And when I say a lot, I mean a looooooooot. I couldn't count how many job interviews I attended. Whether virtually or on site. There's this one interview that goes on top of the worst interviews I attended. It was somewhere in Pasig. It was an agency. I saw the job posting online, so I sent my resume. They texted me and told me that I had an interview. So I went there. ‎  I am not used to wearing shoes with heels. So every time I attended an interview back then, I always left the house wearing flat shoes. I just bring with me other shoes with heels. Then I'll change before the interview when I'm already near the area. But when I had this interview, one of the soles detached from the flat that I was wearing. I was feeling it before I rode the bus, then it fell off when I was already inside the bus. So I had to wear the shoes with high heels that I brought. The

Sat With Ree: Jab We'll Done

Surprisingly, I had my 2nd dose of anti-covid vaccine earlier than I was expecting. It happened last Monday, November 22. If you want to read about what happened during my first dose just click this.  I already expected a long line and a lot of people in the vaccination site, so I wasn't surprised when I got there. It was crowded. It felt like I went to school for an enrolment because there are really a lot of children there with their own chaperone.  I went there at almost two in the afternoon. The good thing is that there are designated lines for children, for those who will be having their first dose, and for second dose. There were only 3 people in the line for the second dose when I got there.  Unlike during my first dose where I didn't wait that long, this time the waiting took me three hours to get my second dose vaccine. Fortunately, there was a waiting area outside and it wasn't raining, but it was the hottest time of the day. I had my blood pressure checked before

Sat With Ree: Westlife The Twenty Tour

Tell me you're a 90's kid without telling me that you're a 90's kid.  So, I say a little prayer  And hope my dreams will take me there  Where the skies are blue  To see you once again, my love  Overseas, from coast to coast  To find a place I love the most  Where the fields are green  To see you once again  My love Taas ang dalawang paa nong mga napakanta. Yieeeeeeee. If you know the song you definitely had an amazing childhood. Natatandaan ko nong bata pa ako nanghihiram pa kami ng VCD ng Westlife don sa tiyohin namin na kapitbahay lang namin. Ang laman ng VCD syempre music video ng Westlife. Tapos yong pinsan ko tili ng tili tuwing nanunuod lalo na kapag si Nicky yong pinapakita. Crush na crush niya kasi noon si Nicky. Tapos ang bet ko noon si Mark. Ang kukulit kasi nila don sa mga music videos nila. Tapos kapag Saturday sa Channel 5 (hindi ko alam kung anong name nong channel basta Channel 5 siya sa amin) music video yong mga pinapalabas. Kasama don yong 'Bop Bop
